My Visa card was suspended

I got this really believable message in my spam folder, telling me that my visa card had been suspended and they asked me to fill in some information, like my visa card number. Yeah right, like I would fall for that.

The funny thing was that you could see it had been translated with Google translate, and that some characters looked suspiciously like Russian Cyrillic letters.

Here is the complete text :

People were honest

I got this strange reaction on my blog :

Yeah I know what you mean , being around today is all together then it was when I was younger. I reckon that our grand parents didn't really even think about this , technology as we know it from many angles helps change things for both the good and the bad. You know I have an old school point of view , however I recall when people used to work hard . People were honest , you could trust if your kids were outside by themselves they were safe , and things weren't as costly. I recon costs are always going to go up , but you know I don't know why why we can't go back to the time when folks cared for one another and actually knew what their neighbors names were . I guess that is a thing of the past , but you know its a great day to be alive , so I suppose I otta just keep moving forward.


What on earth is he talking about?

Legal advice anybody?

I got the following spam message in my mailbox :

help! i need some legal advice on custody / child support / divorce !!!!? Ok-I recently left my husband. We have 1 child together and 1 on the way. My husband still lives down south, and I moved to delaware (with the child). In delaware, my husband is considered a repeat offender and has several felony charges and is also a known drug user. Currently, he is not on drugs however. He doesn't have a car or a place of his own, and never stays at the same job too long.I am trying to work things out with him where we don't have to go through the courts, but he is being an ahole. He sends me all kinds of emails about how he's going to make sure I don't get any help from welfare, and how I can't make him pay child support b/c were married, and how he's going to get the kids.

I have several questions-If we r married but living in seperate states n he isn't supporting his child, can I get child support? What about help through welfare?
Is it possible that a judge would grant him even JOINT custody? With his record? He was put in jail for a few months for assault on a pregnant female (me) but was never convicted b/c I didn't show at court and would the judge still look at that? We were married in SC- can I file for legal separation in delaware, or do I have to travel all the way to SC? What are my options in this case? Are there lawyers out there that I can consult about this for free? What is the best thing for me to do in this situation? When I was 7 months pregnant he broke my cheekbone and I needed stitches in my ear. The state presses charges but were unable to prosecute b/c I didn't show. I didn't go to court b/c #1 I was all the way in SC and wasn't legally able to drive through virginia (suspended license) to delware, I had a job, and also b/c I was very young and stupid and let him convince me that he was sorry. He doesn't have a car (b/c he sold the few he had to get drugs) and he shares an apartment w/ 3 other guys¦..he can't keep a job. He is very unresponsible and has several 1st degree robbery charges as well as possession charges. I don't think he is fit to be a parent
